Comments: AWESOME FLOWER and ON THE SAME PAGE have different trainers (Maker and Ward) but run coupled as the Ramsey entry in the opener. The entry looks like a solid play in the opener. AGE OF AQUARIUS needed her last race and should improve.

Comments: The same owner/trainers combo is back in the second race. STARSILHOUETTE and SISTERHOOD form the Ramsey entry in this one and again figure to be very tough to beat. RARE EVENT has been off since November but had a solid 3-year-old campaign and is the one to beat.

Choices:1. Quick Praise. 2. Ultimate Class. 3. Rattlin Gypsy.

Comments:QUICK PRAISE didn't show much last out but probably needed that race after a three-month layoff. She ran well in her only start over the Keeneland surface and rates a slight edge in a well-matched race. ULTIMATE CLASS has the speed to be on or near the lead throughout and is the one to catch. RATTLIN GYPSY definitely fits with these.

a, b-Coupled.

Choices: 1. Sweet Emma Rose. 2. Tomei. 3. Mad Princess.

Comments: The first 2-year-old race of the year brings out two fillies from the barn of Wesley Ward, who has dominated the baby races in recent meets. SWEET EMMA ROSE and TOMEI have solid works, and Velazquez is named on both runners. The one he rides will probably win. MAD PRINCESS posted a bullet work last week and figures to be the main competition.

Comments: SCATMAN made a nice middle move before stopping in a Grade 3 on the turf last out. He will like the move back to the Keeneland poly where he has already won two races and looks best with Bridgmohan picking up the mount for Bill Mott. SERUNI has been idle since a solid showing in the Ack Ack and is training sharply for his return. UPGRADE will be hard to beat if he handles the poly.

Comments:PARNELLI is a high-priced Keeneland sales grad who showed dramatic improvement in his third career start. He posted a recent bullet work at Palm Meadows and rates a slight edge in a wide-open maiden race. TORMENTA FIERA ran well in both of his races in Canada last year and figures to be tough. WIND OF BOSPHORUS has the speed to be in contention throughout.

Choices: 1. Flying Rapunzel. 2. Speedinthruthecity. 3. Liberated.

Comments:FLYING RAPUNZEL has been idle since a dull effort as the favorite here in October. Catalano is very good with returning runners, and Velazquez is named to ride. She figures to be ready for a solid performance today. SPEEDINTHRUTHECITY needed her race at Santa Anita and can be expected to move forward off of that effort. LIBERATED is a definite threat in a tough allowance race.

Comments:BULL DOZER won five of his 10 races last year and comes off of a solid fourth place finish in the Grade 3 Mr. Prospector at Gulfstream. He should get a good trip under Rosario, and if he handles the poly he figures to beat these. KLISZ broke his maiden over this track last year and comes off of two solid performances in California. He can't be left out of the gimmicks. YES I'M AWESOME is another one who won over this track last year, and his speed makes him dangerous.

Comments:REDWOOD KITTEN exits a key race at Gulfstream. Black Onyx came out of there to win the Spiral at Turfway and Crop Report won the Rushaway on the same day. There isn't a lot of early speed in here and he could spring the mild upset in an extremely well-matched renewal of the Transylvania. UP WITH THE BIRDS closed strongly to win last out in his first race back after a layoff. He has won three of four and is definitely the one to beat. FIRE GUARD and JACK MILTON ran one two last out and both are solid contenders.

Comments: MARQUET CAT drops in class and his best would make him a winner for Maker and Rosario. TAHOE WARRIOR has been idle since a narrow loss here in the fall and figures to be the one to beat. CALCULATING JIMMY is a 10-year-old veteran who fits in here.
